The NAG-BUSTER v.0.66ß, Copyright (c) PC ONLINE SOFTWARE and Erik Famm
Changes and bugs fixed:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.61ß:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Several different copies of Telix 3.20 created a problem since
the NAG-BUSTER looks for a specified filesize of the .EXE-file
for recognition of the correct version. (It also checks bytes
at pre-set offsets). The solution was to create another patch
for the second TELIX.EXE, so now there is support for two different
Telix 3.20's. This explains why the filesizes are noted in
parantheses in the menu.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.62ß:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The patch for QMail 1stReader 1.00 did work satisfactory.
In addition to the fact that the patch did not bypass all windows,
we did not consider the built-in limit of messages per conference
(20 only). Now, you can have up to 400 messages - as with the
registered version.
- The Hyperkey v.4.16 patch only removed the delay screen, but
the time limit was still present. Fixed.
- If the user had a program with incorrect bytes at a specified location
although the filesize was correct, a window should pop up telling
that the program had a wrong version. This did not happen consistently.
The patch only halted and the program returned to either the DOS menu
or the Windows menu. Fixed.
- A minor error with the time function written to the log file has been
fixed.
- BUSTER.EXE is no longer compressed, thereby running faster, but obviously
occupies more harddisk space.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.63ß.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Several new patches were added.
- A few cosmethic changes were made.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.64ß
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Reported bugs were found in both the Offline Express TD patch and in
the Qedit patch. The OLX patch would not run because of an error
with the checking routines in NAG-BUSTER. The Qedit patch accidentally
altered some colors in Qedit. Both patches seems to work fine now.
Please let us know if you still encounter difficulties.
- In version 0.63ß we added a Games menu (with only one patch at present).
That project is now on ice.
- A few cosmethic changes were made - as usual...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.65ß
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The mouse double-click did not work in the DOS/WINDOWS menus. Fixed.
First, point at the program, then double-click the mouse to choose it.
- Automatic backup copying of program files to .BAK is implemented - not
yet with .OVR and .OVL-files, though.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.70ß
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A major rewriting of NAG-BUSTER in this version, so beware of any
unfortunate bugs. Please report found bugs to us - in writing, please.
- Automatic decompression of compressed files implemented as a result
of user request. Thanks for the feed-back!
The new decompression program does not bother with headers in the
compressed files. The decompression routine jumps to DOS, runs
COMPBUST.EXE, which runs the program to be patched, using disk
or EMS (if any) swapping to save memory. Please report problems!
OBS! Do not use the old BUSTLZ.EXE and BUSTPK.EXE any more!
- Added a convenient 'Jump to DOS Shell' - menu choice using disk or
EMS (if any) swapping to save memory.
- Automatic backup copying of .OVR files, too.
- Better (we think) information to the user of what is actually going
on in NAG-BUSTER. Many windows was difficult to follow, as they passed
the user's eye too quickly. Now, things move a bit slower, but inform
you better. Please, contribute with your opinion on this.
- Safer checking of .OVR/OVL files before patching. In earlier versions
NAG-BUSTER checked .EXE files thoroughly, but if there also was a
.OVR to patch also, NAG-BUSTER did not check sufficiently for the
.OVR file's validity, but assumed that it was correct since the
.EXE file was. No problems were discovered, though, but you can never
be *too' sure... Now, .OVR files are checked the same way as .EXE
files before patching. NAG-BUSTER checks and patches the .EXE file
first, then the .OVR file.
- An error was discovered in the Catdisk v.6.15 patch for CATDISK.EXE:
the specified filesize was 153666 bytes, but should have been 153664.
- The Media Cataloging System patch caused the program to hang when
the user chose F2-Track Notes. I addition, a nag window popped up
when the user reached 80 artists in the database. Fixed.
- Some of the patches in the 0.65ß that also had to patch overlay-files
(i.e. files with a .OVR or OVL extension) did not complete
successfully due to a minor programming error. Fixed.
- As opposed to earlier Blaster Master patches, the patch for version
5.7 also removes the 25 second limitation of editing.
